The ordinary inhabitant of the earth remembers theoretical physics only on big holidays and in honor of big opening. However to enter this world "jump" it will not turn out: the quantity of formulas and theoretical aspects in today's science on which textbooks become thicker every year is too high. However, having even dealt with the main theoretical moments, the inhabitant not always understands, "why all this is necessary".
It is possible to answer a question only having come from far away. The modern physics keeps on two postulates: the general theory of relativity of Eynshiyeyn which is engaged in the description of space and time, and standard model which tries to place on shelves structure of substance to the slightest atoms.
So left that the standard model is not ideal, and a lot of things simply do not fit into it. Therefore it is necessary to modify and expand constantly it that there was no logical hole left. One of the main problems is, for example, that light has no weight: why?
Higgs boson is that brick of the universe which explains what is "weight" and why bodies get weight. However its existence was "simply invented", and in practice any bosons can not be. If so – the standard model appears a "deadlock" branch of development. That is practically all quantum physics should be remade in a new way because it is unsolvable and incorrect. The main thing why scientists need "god's particle" - to receive confirmation that the mankind moves in the right direction. It is clear, that the practical value of opening will be measured only for years: the particle in itself for people is senseless. There is a control over its existence far more important. Theoretically, if to learn "to avoid" this "braking" boson, then the mass of any body will be not simply reduced: it will disappear! On the contrary, creating this particle commercially, it is possible to create areas with the increased or lowered gravitation contrary to attraction forces habitual to us. It is clear, that the scope for use of similar opportunities is limited only to imagination. Besides, "хиггсоид" allows to create particles, new, earlier inaccessible for experiments, like of what anti-matter would consist. However, you should not force events: the theoretical physics "is a little far" from practice. The next few years after opening will be necessary only to describe a particle. And people will hardly learn to work with it within the next decades.
